Preferences file for/from a runtime application [message #15073]

Hi All,

I'm writing a couple of programs that are to be distributed with runtime
licences. I would like to know whether it is possible to create a
preferences file so that the user can have the program set up in the way
that they want.

I know that I can easily create a defaults file, but what I want is for
*THEM* to be able to *edit* it from the runtime. I know that the runtime
distribution doesn't allow you to create .sav files so I don't really hold
out much hope!.. any ideas?...

Thanks for the help,

Robert

PS. Runtime programs seem to be one of the (very) few places where using
common blocks doesn't reduce the usefulness of the program :-) However,
I wouldn't dream of EVER using a GOTO if I don't absolutely have to...
